FULL STORY
======================================================================

Immersive sci-fi sim Core Decay has received a brand new trailer, showing off 
a range of different playstyles that are quite reminiscent of Deus Ex and 
System Shock . 

In the tradition of the best RPGs , Core Decay lets you solve problems via 
stealth, social skills, or old-fashioned violence. The trailer shows off an 
escape from an enclosed facility, where the main character must get to a 
manager's office to flip a switch. 

Despite the games 'old-school' graphics, the violent approach exhibits a 
pleasing gauntlet of gunplay, alongside a rich sound design and 
punchy-looking weapons. The trailer also shows off a diplomatic route, where 
the main character uses conversational skills to convince a factory worker to 
part with the code to the office. 

Last, but not least, the preview trailer also gives us a look at some of Core 
Decay 's stealth mechanics. Charmingly reminiscent of classic open-ended 
sci-fi RPG Deus Ex, we see the protagonist stack crates and boxes to create a 
new route around patrolling enemies, shortly after sneakily bludgeoning a 
guard to death with a crowbar - a display that would make even Gordon Freeman 
proud. 

Sharing some of its DNA with CD Projekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077 , Core Decay 
takes place in a dystopian sci-fi future where you play as a cybernetically 
enhanced human. The title is set in 2089, in a future where, according to the 
game's Steam page , humanity is teetering "on the brink of an ecological 
collapse." 

 Core Decay has you follow the trail of a conspiracy that aims to allow 
humanity to weather this calamity, but only by using a method that "means 
sacrificing all it means to be alive." 

Following in the footsteps of the best story games , it looks as though Core 
Decay will wrestle with heavy themes of identity, individuality, and 
transhumanism - a real treat for those who enjoy hard-hitting immersive sims 
like Deus Ex and System Shock . 

 Core Decay is set to release on PC, though we don't yet have a launch window.
